Hello everyone,

This is the last week of the course. On Wednesday, we’ll talk about transforming and preserving food, and then revisit two themes from the term: how urban agroecology connects with urban planning, and how to build an urban farm from seed to seed. On Friday, we’ll close the course with a farewell feast potluck.

Here’s the plan for the week:

1. Introduction and check-in

2. Food preservation

3. Discussion: Food systems in urban planning + building an urban farm

4. Farewell Feast! Please bring something to share. It doesn’t need to be fancy or cooked—simple ingredients are great. If there are any barriers to participating, please let me know.
